Park Commission Chair Ann Thies presided. 1) Call to Order Commissioners Present: Ann Thies, Madeleine Linck, Steve Lee, Lori Meehan, Ellis Olkon, Nate Pearson and Dino DesLauriers Commissioners Absent: None Also Present: City Council member Melissa Martinson, Public Works Director Steve Scherer and Assistant to City Administrator Jodi Gallup 2) Additions to the Agenda: A motion was made by Linck and seconded by Lee to add a brief resolution during the staff report. Motion passed unanimously. 3) Approval of Minutes: • November 19, 2014 Meeting A motion was made by Lee and seconded by Linck to approve the minutes from November 19, 2014 as presented. Motion passed unanimously. 4) Public Comments (on items not on the agenda): None. 5) City Council Update Martinson updated the Park Commission on recent City Council actions. 6) Eagle Scout Project — Holy Name Park Fred Stephan with Troop 283 stated that he first presented his project request to build a picnic shelter to the Park Commission in September and was here tonight to address/answer the outstanding questions from the last meeting. Stephan stated that he did a sight visit with Public Works Director Steve Scherer to determine the exact location of the picnic shelter at Holy Name Park. He showed a few pictures of the exact location and the view point from that location. This location would be on the left side of the path near the parking lot. Stephan noted that the second question that was asked of him was in regards to insurance. He verified with his troop and they do provide insurance to cover these projects. The last item was in relation to pricing. He was asked to price out cedar shakes instead of asphalt shingles and to price out matching pavers to the pavers on the existing path. He showed the Park Commission an updated spreadsheet of the cost breakdown. He stated Medina Park Commission Meeting Minutes - DRAFT December 17, 2014 Medina City Hall Page 2 of 4 that the price did increase from around $1,800 to approximately $2,700 because of the cedar shakes and matching pavers. He also noted that he was proposing to connect the existing path to the picnic shelter. A motion was made by Lee and seconded by DesLauriers to recommend to the City Council to accept this project and pay for it out of Park Dedication funds. Motion passed unanimously. 7) Eagle Scout Project — Hamel Legion Park Griffin Schneider introduced himself to the Park Commission and gave a brief outline of his presentation and his background. Schneider stated that the scope of the project included framing and pouring concrete slabs for the bleachers, moving the monument and flagpole, painting the dugouts, creating dugout maintenance signs and helping with annual field maintenance. Schneider stated that his teammates for this project included Greg DeVos and Ted Fust with the Hamel Hawks, Steve Scherer with the City of Medina, and scouts and parents from Boy Scout Troop 3202. Schneider reviewed the funding sources and costs for each of the projects noting that the majority of the expense would be for the concrete slabs costing around $3,000 to $4,500. Schneider stated that the timing of the project would be April to May 2015 over two or three weekends. Scherer requested that they give themselves an extra weekend to do the work in case it rains. It was questioned if city staff would be able to be there to supervise the project on the weekends, which Scherer stated that he would not be able to be there on weekends so it would be nice to find some days that worked during the week to complete the project. Each project was then discussed in more detail. Schneider showed a picture of where the concrete slab would be placed and noted that it would extend all the way to the dugout. It was asked if the slab would be symmetrical on both sides. The Park Commission questioned the specifications of the concrete slabs. Ted Fust with the Hamel Hawks stated that he has poured concrete slabs in the past and also has a friend who does it for a business and is willing to help them out. Medina Park Commission Meeting Minutes - DRAFT December 17, 2014 Medina City Hall Page 3 of 4 The Park Commission questioned why the concrete slab would extend beyond where the bleachers were placed. It was noted that it would be nice for lawn chairs too. Discussion took place on the location of the flag pole. It was noted that the Hamel Athletic Club also uses the flag pole on the little league field, which is why it is located between the two fields. It was also noted that the proposed location would be in the way of future bleachers. Everyone agreed that the existing flag pole is rusted and an eye sore so something needed to be done with it, but it should not be moved to a different location. Discussion took place on painting the dugouts royal blue to match the team colors of the Hamel Hawks and the Hamel Athletic Club. It was noted that the dugouts were just painted beige last year so this paint job would be purely cosmetic. It was noted that these teams only play a few months of the year and the rest of the year everyone would have to look at the royal blue. The Park Commission agreed that they did not want the dugouts painted royal blue and suggested that the teams just hang a banner during their games instead. Discussion took place on the proposed dugout rules sign. The Park Commission liked the idea, but questioned where the list of rules came from? It was noted that the sign was modeled after the signs at the St. Michael/Albertville fields. The Park Commission suggested blue signs with white letters instead of green and white. The Park Commission also stated that the Hawks and the Hamel Athletic Club need to come to an agreement on the wording of the sign before it is created. Discussion took place on the maintenance items which included hanging outfield windscreens and filling in low areas with ag lime. The Park Commission did not have any problems with these items and did not think that they needed City approval. Pearson, DesLauriers and Scherer agreed to meet Schneider on site to determine the exact location of the concrete slabs and to look at the flag pole and monument locations. The Park Commission directed Schneider to bring back more detailed plans to the January meeting for further consideration. 8) Future Facilities Map Gallup noted that City Planner Dusty Finke updated the Future Facilities Map per past comments and direction from the Park Commissioners. He added a study area circle on the east side of County Road 116 and he changed some of the color schemes to make the map easier to understand. Medina Park Commission Meeting Minutes - DRAFT December 17, 2014 Medina City Hall Page 4 of 4 The Park Commission noted the following items they would like updated on the map • Remove the proposed trail connection on the Wakefield property • Fix how Morgan Road is shown on the map • Look into if the trail on Medina Road can be striped to go two ways on one side of the street • Show a new trail connection from the City owned woods in the Reserve of Medina to the new City owned woods in the Villas at Medina Golf and Country Club • Look further into switching the proposed trail south of Arrowhead from a paved trail to a turf trail 9) Staff Report • Gallup noted that the Park Commission has three seats expiring at the end of 2014. Meehan has submitted her application to renew her term. Please forward applications on to interested residents as the application deadline is December 19th • Linck stated that she would like to have a resolution thanking Ellis Olkon and Ann Thies for their many years of service on the Medina Park Commission. The Park Commissioners thanked them for their service. 10) Adjourn A motion was made by Olkon, seconded by Pearson and passed unanimously, to adjourn the meeting. The meeting was adjourned at 8:15 p.m. Minutes prepared by Jodi Gallup.

THANK YOU! r l 3 3' r S' Sled sk -Id O'P mac,/c„ o, be P-1 4isei oso the mission of Three Rivers Park District is to promote environmental stewardship through recreation and education in a natural resources -based park system. Three Rivers Park District was established in 1957 after legislation was enacted in 1955 allowing for the activation of park districts whose primary duties are 'acquisition, development and maintenance of large parks, wildlife sanctuaries, forest and other reservations, and means for public access to historic sites and to lakes, rivers and streams and to other natural phenomena" (Minnesota State Statutes, Chapter 398.07). There are more than 10 million annual visits to more than 26,500 acres of park reserves, regional parks and special -use areas in Hennepin and five adjoining counties and 120 miles of regional trails. Current outdoor - recreation activities in regional parks and trails include camping, hiking, cross-country and downhill skiing, tubing, bicycling, in -line skating, horseback riding, nature interpretation, golfing, fishing and swimming. Three Rivers Park District also operates a natural resources management program, which administers the restoration and perpetuation of both native wildlife and plants in order to provide park and trail visitors opportunities for high -quality recreational experiences.

McDowell, Associate Superintendent Division of Recreation, Education & Natural Resources Jonathan Vlaming, Associate Superintendent Division of Planning, Design & Technology Baker/Carver Regional Trail Master Plan, November 2014 iii This page left intentionally blank iv Three Rivers Park District Executive Summary The Baker/Carver Regional Trail will fill a gap in the regional park and trail system with a safe, accessible and enjoyable recreation and alternative transportation option. Currently, southwestern suburban Hennepin County residents do not have access to a convenient and attractive off -road regional trail that supports a north/south connection. The Baker/Carver Regional Trail will expand recreational access to park and trail facilities, residential neighborhoods, commercial nodes and downtown Maple Plain - which in turn supports bicycle and pedestrian mobility and economic development. When completed, the trail will measure approximately seventeen miles from the Lake Independence Regional Trail in Baker Park Reserve to the Lake Minnetonka LRT Regional Trail in Carver Park Reserve. The regional trail will connect the Hennepin County communities of Medina, Maple Plain, Independence and Minnetrista and the Carver County communities of Laketown Township and Victoria. Users will have the ability to effectively traverse the entire north/south length of western Hennepin County. The proposed regional trail will directly connect recreational destinations such as Baker and Carver Park Reserves, Gale Woods Farm, and Kingswood Park in addition to Lake Minnetonka LRT, Dakota Rail and Lake Independence Regional Trails - and the Luce Line State Trail, and will indirectly connect to Lake Minnetonka Regional Park. Some segments of the proposed trail already exist, or are planned for construction funding in the future. Originally a city of Minnetrista initiative, Three Rivers Park District assumed responsibility of the Baker/Carver Regional Trail planning in 2012. The proposed regional trail search corridor was expanded beyond the initial Minnetrista planning to include connection to Baker Park Reserve through the communities of Independence, Maple Plain and Medina. Baker/Carver Regional Trail Alignment Source: Three Rivers Park District Baker/Carver Regional Trail Master Plan, November 2014 v The Baker/Carver Regional Trail Master Plan is intended to reflect and expand upon the work done by Minnetrista and further incorporate the larger regional context and destinations. Active use of the Baker/Carver Regional Trail is expected to provide walking/hiking, bicycling, running/ jogging, in -line skating, and dog walking opportunities during the non -winter months. The Park District's seasonal -use data of existing regional trails indicates that significant use of the trail will occur in the spring, summer and fall seasons. Winter use of the Baker/Carver Regional Trail is dependent on weather conditions and independent winter use agreements with local communities to maintain and operate the trail during the winter season (defined as November 15 to March 31). When fully constructed, the Baker/ Carver Regional Trail is projected to generate 183,000 annual visits. In summary, the Baker/Carver Regional Trail is estimated to require at minimum; 1) acquisition costs: $435,700, 2) construction costs: $10,300,000, 3) one-time costs (maintenance equipment or similar): $100,000 and 4) annual costs: $5,000 for natural resource management and $60,000 for maintenance.

List of annual items i) January — Annual Goal Setting Session ii) March/April/May — Annual Park Tour (set date in February or March) iii) April — Participate in Annual City Clean-up Day (discuss in March) iv) April/May/June — Annual Bird Watch/Nature Walk Event (discuss in April) v) June/July — Capital Improvement Plan Review (review in June) vi) September — Participate in Annual Celebration Day (discuss in August) vii) Grants to Review Annually (review as they become available) (1) Hennepin County Youth Sports Facility Grant — The City will need to make a decision if we are going to apply for this grant again for ball field lights or any other sport facilities. • Application Deadline: Approximately November 1, 2015 (2) Parks & Trails Legacy Grant Program (DNR) . Application Deadline: September 2015 (regional trail connection) (3) Other Grants? 2. Friends of the Park Program — At the end of last year, the Park Commission determined that the Friends of the Park program was too strict and full of rules that would not entice residents to participate in the program. It is a goal of the Park Commission to update this program to make it more inviting to participate. 3. Park & Trail Master Plan — This plan was approved back in March 2014, but should be reviewed annually for changes. Please continue to bring this plan with to all future meetings to reference. 4. Signage at Lakeshore Park — Lakeshore Park has many signs to include: park rules, high water levels, Aquatic Invasive Species, parking, etc. A Park Commission subcommittee should visit the site and determine if we could combine some signs and where they should be placed. 5. The Park at Fields of Medina — The final plan has been approved, sidewalks and the parking lot have been installed and the playground equipment and shelter have been ordered and delivered and are waiting for installation. The City needs to go out for bids for concrete work this spring and we would like the park complete by mid -summer. The Park Commission will be able to help with smaller park features, finalizing the design of the sport court, and helping to organize a grand opening of the park. 6. Planned Park Improvements — Review in detail two city parks at each meeting this year. The Park Commission should take site visits to the parks that will be discussed prior to the meeting to come prepared to discuss any issues or improvements needed in each park. (This was a 2014 goal that never was completed. Is the Park Commission still interested in pursuing this goal?) 7. Sign at Holy Name Park — look into replacing the restoration sign at Holy Name Park. It has a lot of water damage. Planned Park Improvements These items were removed from the Park & Trail Master Plan to stay more current. This document will be reviewed and updated annually at the Park Commission's Goal Setting Session.
